Was pretty sure it was the better option, but wanted to get another opinion. I'm more worried about the 1ms vs 5ms response time. Freesync is supported because I have a GTx 1660 and have G-sync enabled right now

Hello, recently bought this ultrawide monitor, replacing my Benq V2320H 2ms GTG (23inch and almost 10 years old) https://www.lg.com/us/monitors/lg-29UM69G-B-ultrawide-monitor My monitor can allow either Motion Blur with 1ms or Freesync with 5ms and I don't know which to pick. I'm guessing...

That I know, my question was about bandwidth. Since it's not pcie 3.0, isn't the pcie 2.0 x4 the equivalent of the integrated m.2 slot on my motherboard? So would an adapter be an option to get more speed or would it be just a waste of money if it will have the same speed as the m.2 slot which...

So you're telling me to buy the pcie adapter? Or is it the same bandwidth as the integrated m.2 port?

I have a Gigabyte h97-d3h https://www.gigabyte.com/Motherboard/GA-H97-D3H-rev-10#sp and found the hard way that the m.2 on board slot, runs only at pcie 2.0 x2 speed bottlenecking my Samsung PM981. Question is now if I buy a Pcie adapter card, do I still have enough pci lanes for it to run at...

Hello, I've been using the same setup for almost 5 years now (i5 haswell 3.3ghz, 16gb ddr3 1600mhz, gigabyte h97-d3h rev 1.0) with windows 8.1 because it was stable and caused me no issues all these years. But now I'd want to upgrade to Windows 10. Actually, I'm writing this post from Windows...

Sorry to necro this but I have the same issue. I just bought got a bargain on a brand new Samsung PM981 256gb, installed it on my Gigabyte H97-D3H rev 1.0 only to see in CrystalDisk Info that it's running at pcie 2.0 x2 but supports pcie 3.0 x4. FML Is there anything I can do? Fret help me

It happened before that my pc would wake up in the middle of the night from Sleep mode, but I would just Disable my mouse, keyboard or LAN from being able to wake it up in the options But last night, I woke up to it running only to shut down itself before reaching the keyboard to shut it...

Ok, so I wrote a ticket to Asus support and the service rep told me that this model does not support Windows newer than 7. Is that a thing? I never heard of something like this before. My problem was with trying to install and UEFI OS version on a MBR formatted hdd so I was planning on...

Sir, you didn't understand the title, do you know if it supports UEFI Boot? Hwinfo says NO but the option in bios had me thinking. I'm inclining towards a YES but not sure if that's a standard option or what

Hello, I have an old Asus X52JC and wanna set it up for an older person. I did a firmware upgrade to the most recent bios version and then ran Hwinfo64 to see if it supports UEFI so I know which windows to write on the boot usb. Hwinfo said NO, but now I'm looking in the bios and it has the...

I know a few things about pcs as I build this rig on my own and solved hardware or software related issues in the past I just want someone who has some expertise to give a good insight and to understand if this thing is only in my head. I imagine that because i'm not letting the full throttle...

I have a GTX 970 Twin Turbo OC (the one with only 1 cooler like a turbine) When under load (playing games at max settings and other stuff) the cooler ramps up for a few minutes to avoid overheat which is normal, then goes back to normal throttle. But last night, I quit a game and then turned off...

The one already in my laptop is the one with the sticker over the chips, and I found the other on a second hand seller. I just want straight to the point answer, nothing off-topic like "buy new ram" https://imgur.com/a/e6pmO2f

@jankerson, but 960 evo isn't 951 or 961 is it? Then why bother writing? @madmatt, you wrote exactly what I nicely asked people not to do correct? Seems there is a pretty important difference in flash and controller @drea I run Windows 8.1, loads of software and Steam with ~30gb space for games...
